SENIORTRUST HUB

Texas senior care research

Texas Senior Care Research

SeniorTrustHub currently organizes Texas CMS class directories, HHSC license directories, and TULIP verification as separate official datasets. They are not added into one senior-provider total. SeniorTrustHub does not rank facilities and does not publish a Trust Score.

Separate official universes

Source families, not one Texas senior-provider total

CMS Nursing Homes, CMS Home Health, CMS Hospice, Texas HHSC/TULIP, and state enforcement coverage are not added together. A county on these records is a facility address county, not a service area.

Texas HHSC / TULIP

TULIP verifies a license. It is not a bulk roster count.

What this page answers

Texas senior-care research, class by class

  1. What senior-care classes exist in Texas? HHSC Long-term Care Regulation licenses Nursing Facilities, Assisted Living (Type A / Type B / Type C as published), HCSSA (home health, hospice, and personal assistance), DAHS, ICF/IID, and other programs. PPECC is pediatric and is excluded here. CMS separately certifies Nursing Homes, Home Health, and Hospice.
  2. What CMS facilities can TrustHub research statewide? 1,177 Nursing Homes, 1,854 Home Health agencies, and 1,053 Hospice providers in the current national overlays.
  3. How do CMS and Texas HHSC differ? CMS CERTIFIED != STATE LICENSED. HHSC NF.xlsx lists 1,175 active-license nursing facilities as of 2026-09-03. That is not the CMS overlay.
  4. How do consumers verify a Texas assisted-living facility? Look the provider up in TULIP, then use the official HHSC ALF directory identity (Facility ID / License Number). ALF is not a skilled-nursing facility.
  5. What state facility data is bulk versus search-only? NF.xlsx, al.xlsx, and HHA.xlsx (HCSSA) are official Excel directories. TULIP is open search without login and is not scraped.
  6. What inspection/enforcement evidence is available? CMS Nursing Home inspection, deficiency, penalty, staffing, and ownership evidence stays on existing CCN profiles. HHSC closure workbooks are historical license actions. State SOD/penalty bulk was not acquired.
  7. What does the data not establish? It does not rank facilities, invent a combined Texas senior-provider total, treat missing as zero, or prove a service area from a facility address.

What the files show

Source-backed findings

  • CMS Texas overlays: 1,177 Nursing Homes, 1,854 Home Health agencies, and 1,053 Hospice providers. Live unique CCN sets reconcile to the same three counts. They are not one senior-provider total.
  • HHSC NF.xlsx as of 2026-09-03: 1,175 active-license nursing facilities, 1,169 with Facility Certified = YES. Exact padded Medicare Provider Number matches 1,149 of 1,153 native numbers against 1,177 CMS Nursing Home CCNs. Name and city are unused.
  • HHSC al.xlsx as of 2026-09-03: 2,000 Assisted Living Facilities (TYPE A 337, TYPE B 1,655, TYPE C 8). Alzheimer Certificate Number is present on 731 rows. ALF != SNF.
  • HCSSA HHA.xlsx as of 2026-09-03: 8,799 directory rows. Personal Assistance Services appears on 6,035 rows; Licensed Home Health Services on 3,608; Licensed and Certified Home Health Services on 2,048; Hospice on 1,538. Those labels overlap and are not added. HOME HEALTH != PERSONAL ASSISTANCE.
  • CMS Nursing Home address counties cover 217 of 254 Texas counties. Harris has 97 CMS Nursing Homes. County is not a service area and is not a county page.
  • TULIP remains search-only. Excel directories are not a complete LTC universe covering DAHS, ICF/IID, and every HCSSA status. Missing is unknown, not zero.

Inspection and enforcement

Federal CMS architecture plus HHSC closures

Closure Excel rows are license actions, not inspection findings and not a quality rank. Missing SOD/penalty bulk is unknown, not zero. Child-care CCL SODA is deliberately excluded.

What we do not know

Coverage gaps

  • No complete Texas state LTC roster covering NF + ALF + HCSSA + DAHS + ICF as one universe. Missing is not zero.
  • TULIP remains search-only. A TULIP search result is not a complete bulk universe.
  • HCSSA Personal Assistance is not CMS Home Health. HCSSA Hospice is not CMS Home Health.
  • Exact state↔CMS crosswalk is available only where a source-native Medicare Provider Number / CCN exists. Name-only is unsafe.
  • State inspection findings, statement-of-deficiencies, and administrative-penalty bulk were not acquired as structured open data in this pass.
  • Immediate Jeopardy and ALF violations PDFs were not parsed (PDF-by-PDF STOP).
  • Facility address county is not a Home Health or Hospice service area.
  • Hospital-based NF.xlsx is a sibling directory and is not added to NF.xlsx.
  • PPECC is pediatric and is excluded from the senior-care universe.
  • CMS inspection/ownership evidence stays on existing national CCN architecture; this snapshot does not invent Texas-only inspection ranks.

Child-care CCL operations (14,982 rows) and CCL inspections (206,609 rows) are deliberately excluded. CHILD CARE DATA != SENIOR CARE.
